Hammurabi (c. 1810 BC - 1750 BC) was the sixth king of the First Babylonian Dynasty, reigning from 1792 BC to 1750 BC (according to the Middle Chronology). He was preceded by his father, Sin-Muballit, who abdicated due to failing health. He extended Babylon's control throughout Mesopotamia through military campaigns. Hammurabi is known for the Code of Hammurabi, one of the earliest surviving codes of law in recorded history. The name Hammurabi derives from the Amorite term Ê»AmmurÄpi (the kinsman is a healer), itself from Ê»Ammu (paternal kinsman) and RÄpi (healer).

Granny Smiths were the winners!
Another interesting study published in the journal Nutrition in 2003 suggested eating an apple (or pear) before a meal can help you consume up to 15% fewer calories during the meal. Of course, candied apples, pies and tarts don t count as weight-loss friendly foods. Apple juice, often loaded with added sugar, does not qualify either. A good, wholesome fruit that requires you to chew well is what you need. Do not remove the green peel it is packed with beneficial fiber.
